Jump$tart National Educator Conference 2015

As the nation’s leading advocate for youth financial literacy, the Jump$tart Coalition®will proudly conduct its seventh annual conference devoted specifically to PreK-12 classroom teachers of personal finance on the shores of the Potomac River just south of Washington, DC. This conference offers classroom educators an opportunity to see, learn about, and try educational resources to integrate immediately into current lesson plans; to attend informative workshops under two different strands—curriculum/content and personal growth; to meet with leaders from finance and education; and to network with colleagues from across the country.

Subsidizes costs for teachers, making it affordable despite economic conditions.

Improves teachers’ own level of financial literacy.

Introduces teachers to new information, techniques, and resources to help them bring personal finance to life in their classrooms.

Gives teachers the opportunity to network with resource providers, industry leaders, and—most importantly—fellow financial educators from across the country.

Through the National Educator Conference, Jump$tart offers its coalition partners a platform to share their resources and expertise with the education community, by discounting the exhibit fee and considering partner representatives first for speaking roles in conference sessions.
